Class Notes

Hello, Class of ’92. Thanks to all who sent messages. Please keep − or start − it up! Some of us keep in touch online, but UMW Magazine is a wonderful way to stay connected with Mary Washington and one another. I hope to see more updates in the future!

My husband, Tom, and I visited my aunt and uncle in Sarasota, Fla., for Thanksgiving, seeing Myakka River State Park, the John and Mable Ringling Museum of Art, and the Siesta Key Drum Circle. In December, we started a community supper club, held our first progressive dinner, and led a neighborhood caroling group. We had a quiet Christmas at home with our cats. In February, we celebrated our second Mardi Gras in Mobile, Ala., and hosted a Fat Tuesday supper club dinner in our home. My maternal grandfather, John Robinson, passed away, and Tom and I spent time with my family in Lexington, Va. I had high hopes for spring and new beginnings.

Tevin Chaney lives in Fredericksburg with Mary Ann McDonald and was to receive a master’s degree in May.

Tevin recently saw Shannon Eadie Niemeyer ’91 and husband Frank Niemeyer ’91.

Anne Thompson Mendez lost sister-in-law Elizabeth Eastwood Mendez in October after a long, courageous battle with breast cancer. Friends and family were to run in her memory in May’s Race for the Cure in Washington, D.C.

Karolyn Hall plans group motorcoach tours and cruises for a Richmond operator, went scuba diving in Cayman Brac, and keeps in touch with Gabby Sulzbach Pickover, who’s married and lives in Fredericksburg.
